I looking at buying a 2004 Rancher 400 AT 4x4 for $2000. It has outlaw mud tires, HMF exhaust pipe, 2' lift. The guy says that it sometimes shifts funny, like the motor is bogged down. What kind of money am I looking at to get it running right? Need some advice???

 

I personally wouldnt buy a used ATV unless I knew the previous owner or the bike was in exceptional condition
I would stay away from one that already shows signs of a possible motor/tranny problem as well but thats just me

 

And I personally wouldn't buy a NEW atv. I always buy used.

 

Me too, let someone else be the guinea pig that loses $2000 in the first week. Let them put the first 1000 miles on it then buy it from them for half price,I say.

But I agree with Yammy450,if the ATV is showing problems then skip it,there are so many more out there to chose from without issues.

 

I think I'd skip this one, too...

 

Avoid the Rancher 400AT!!! Honda only made it for a short time, then dicontinued it...for good reason!

 

I'd skip too if it already has problems


then again I have a 400AT and it runs like a top and shifts perfect....they arent as bad as ppl think if they have been taken care of mine has over 3000 miles on it and is perfectly fine.....just needs more power
